Perfect Crystals for U_q(D_4^{(3)})

A perfect crystal of any level is constructed for the Kirillov-Reshetikhin module of $U_q(D_4^{(3)})$ corresponding to the middle vertex of the Dynkin diagram. The actions of Kashiwara operators are given explicitly. It is also shown that this family of perfect crystals is coherent. A uniqueness problem solved in this paper can be applied to other quantum affine algebras.Comment: 27 page

Young tableaux and crystal B(∞)B(\infty) for finite simple Lie algebras

We study the crystal base of the negative part of a quantum group. An explicit realization of the crystal is given in terms of Young tableaux for types $A_n$, $B_n$, $C_n$, $D_n$, and $G_2$. Connection between our realization and a previous realization of Cliff is also given

Categorification of Highest Weight Modules via Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier Algebras

In this paper, we prove Khovanov-Lauda's cyclotomic categorification conjecture for all symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras. Let $U_q(g)$ be the quantum group associated with a symmetrizable Cartan datum and let $V(\Lambda)$ be the irreducible highest weight $U_q(g)$-module with a dominant integral highest weight $\Lambda$. We prove that the cyclotomic Khovanov-Lauda-Rouquier algebra $R^{\Lambda}$ gives a categorification of $V(\Lambda)$.Comment: Typoes correcte

On cacti and crystals

In the present work we study actions of various groups generated by involutions on the category $\mathscr O^{int}_q(\mathfrak g)$ of integrable highest weight $U_q(\mathfrak g)$-modules and their crystal bases for any symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebra $\mathfrak g$. The most notable of them are the cactus group and (yet conjectural) Weyl group action on any highest weight integrable module and its lower and upper crystal bases. Surprisingly, some generators of cactus groups are anti-involutions of the Gelfand-Kirillov model for $\mathscr O^{int}_q(\mathfrak g)$ closely related to the remarkable quantum twists discovered by Kimura and Oya.Comment: 50 pages, AMSLaTe

On dual canonical bases

The dual basis of the canonical basis of the modified quantized enveloping algebra is studied, in particular for type $A$. The construction of a basis for the coordinate algebra of the $n\times n$ quantum matrices is appropriate for the study the multiplicative property. It is shown that this basis is invariant under multiplication by certain quantum minors including the quantum determinant. Then a basis of quantum SL(n) is obtained by setting the quantum determinant to one. This basis turns out to be equivalent to the dual canonical basis

Fusion of the qq-Vertex Operators and its Application to Solvable Vertex Models

We diagonalize the transfer matrix of the inhomogeneous vertex models of the 6-vertex type in the anti-ferroelectric regime intoducing new types of q-vertex operators. The special cases of those models were used to diagonalize the s-d exchange model\cite{W,A,FW1}. New vertex operators are constructed from the level one vertex operators by the fusion procedure and have the description by bosons. In order to clarify the particle structure we estabish new isomorphisms of crystals. The results are very simple and figure out representation theoretically the ground state degenerations.Comment: 35 page

Langlands duality for representations of quantum groups

We establish a correspondence (or duality) between the characters and the crystal bases of finite-dimensional representations of quantum groups associated to Langlands dual semi-simple Lie algebras. This duality may also be stated purely in terms of semi-simple Lie algebras. To explain this duality, we introduce an "interpolating quantum group" depending on two parameters which interpolates between a quantum group and its Langlands dual. We construct examples of its representations, depending on two parameters, which interpolate between representations of two Langlands dual quantum groups.Comment: 37 pages. References added.
